At approximately 10:45 A.M. this morning, Jamestown police responded to call about a possible homicide. Several officers and first responders descended upon an abandoned building earlier today located on the property which is owned by Breton Industrial, a steel fabrication plant.

The bartender will bring only a napkin.

Teachers can be bad too.
Nonetheless, he had it coming.
Let’s just say, we all have lessons to learn…
